I haven't finished rebuilding the PC so these notes are going to be a little abbreviated again as I'm doing them on my 7" Eee. As usual, my notes are behind this cut...

Despite yesterday's forecast that it would be dry for today's race, it's raining in Monza again, so much so the race will start behind the safety car, and everyone will be on monsoon (full wet weather) tyres.

01/53[SC]: SV leads away on the formation lap the first lap behind the Safety CarSB is stuck on the grid - if he isn't restarted quickly he'll have to start at the back of the grid instead of P4It's a sign of how slow they're taking the lap when the medical car is keeping up!

02[SC]: Finally SB exits the pitsSC in at end of this lap

03: SV leads the Grand PrixLH appears to be falling back from KR alreadyHopefully the monsoon tyres will clear the racing line after a few laps at higher speedTG takes P7 from FA

04: FA re-passes TG into Turn 1DC took P11 from GFLH passes KR but can't stop for the chicane; cuts across it and lets KR pass him

05/53: SV, HK, MW, NR, FM, JT, FA, TG

07: SV's lead almost 6secs

08: LH is ~2secs of SV's paceA dry line is slowly appearing

09: SV fastest lap 1:34.972KR passes GF into Turn 1, which moves him up to P11

10/53: LH needs the whole length of the main straight to pass GF

11: SV's pit crew ask him about tyre balance, so his pit stop is probably a couple of laps awayLH goes up the inside of KR into Lesmos-1, and eases past him for P11Finally it looks like LH has found some pace

12: FM closing on NR, pushing him for P4The dry line is looking good, and drivers are reporting degradation in the full wet tyres (to be expected as the track dries out) so who will be first to try out intermediates?

13: FM passes NR but then NR takes back P4LH passes NH for P10

14: FM passes NR again and this time keeps P4Replay shows GF lose his front wing, which gets stuck under his Force India, so he can't make a turn and just slides head-first into the tyre wall

15/53: SV, HK, MW, FM, NR, JT, FA, RK; retirements: GFLH enters T1 alongside TG, and holds his line through the chicane to take P9TG fights back but LH takes the racing line, which forces TG onto the grass although TG keeps it tidy and falls in behind

16: LH takes P8 from RKPit-car for FA say rain expected in a couple of minutes and it will last "a long time"

40/53: FM tries to pass NH for P5 but cuts the chicane and has to yield

41: FM cuts another chicane; LH is closing in on him

42: SV has a 11+ second lead over HKLH almost close enough to have a go at taking P6 from FM

43: KR and TG pass KN

44: SV pit-car say light rain before the end of the raceDC runs off, across the gravel and grass, then back onto the trackJB pushing DC for P10RB put on extreme wet tyres in his pit stop - interesting!

Gerhard Berger congratulates Vettel during the Italian anthem (for the constructor) - it's been a while since he's been on a podium :)

Kovalainen doesn't look overly impressed with coming second

Post-race interviews:SV: "Unbelievable"; "the best day of my life"; "being first, having no visibility problems, was key"; "there's still P1 on my board - how can it be?" :)HK: "the maximum we could do today"; "a little bit difficult"RK: first podium finish 2 years ago; "overtook Nick without seeing him"(!); "Lewis got by easily; he was much quicker"SV: "I've seen every angle of the grid"; "now we can be proud of ourselves"
